Q: What is the difference between MP3 and WAV formats?

A: The WAV audio format is an uncompressed audio format. As the audio signal is not subject to any processing, the sound quality is the same as a CD. The drawback is that since a WAV audio file is about 5 times larger than a MP3 file, it takes longer to download.

The MP3 format is the most popular format for downloading and storing music. By eliminating portions of the audio file that are less audible, an MP3 file is compressed to roughly one-fifth the size of an equivalent WAV file, thereby sacrificing a little quality. To non-audiophiles however, the difference between a WAV file and an MP3 file (at an encoding bit rate of 320 kbps) is difficult to discern.

Our MP3s don’t have any built-in Digital Rights Management (DRM), meaning they can be transferred to any device and be expected to play.

Q: How do I purchase MP3 or WAV digital downloads?

A: You can download your music as soon as you’ve completed your purchase. Once your payment has been processed, you will receive a confirmation e-mail. This e-mail contains your personal download link. Please note: You can use this download link 3 times, after this the link expires. What happens next depends on whether you have a PC or a MAC. Here’s the easiest way to download the files for each system:

When prompted, click Open to access the program. 2. Once the Download Manager launches, you will be asked if you want to change the folder where your music will be stored. Click No; this will automatically save the files to your “My Music” folder, which is located in the “My Documents” folder on your computer. 3. After you click No, your music will begin downloading immediately. 4. When the downloads are complete, click the Listen to Downloads button in the Download Manager to open the directory where you saved your music. 5. Double-click on the file for each song you downloaded to launch your default media player (e.g. iTunes) and play the song.

Q: What if I forget to click the Download button right after I complete my purchase?
